New small business promotional tactic: Coupons on Google Maps

In a lot of ways, it’s been difficult for the local brick-and-mortar business to market itself to local customers on the Internet. There’s a new development, however, that could help small businesses promote themselves locally over the Web. Yesterday, Google introduced coupons on Google Maps.

If you want to see how this works, click over to Search Engine Roundtable where they have detailed the process of creating a coupon.

This coupon process is available to any company already having a presence on Google Local (or have an account on Google Local Business Center). If you’re a small business and would like to get started advertising on Google Local, you can create an account at their web site.
